Do you think they believe they can "win" the war with 20-30,000 more troops? I doubt that is their reasoning. In my opinion, they believe "something" is going to cause an upsurge in violence. They will need more troops just to keep it under some semblance of control - not to win.

What is that "something" that might create an upsurge in violence? Seems I recall there is an execution planned for some time in the future for a former dictator? Until that happens, don't mention anything to Mr Bush about "withdrawing" any troops. That is his model for victory - when Saddam is executed.

Normally, we would not be so cynical about such an important decision as sending more troops into a lost cause. However, this is not about America. It is not about victory. It is not about how many more American troops must die. It's about a power game that Mr Bush has invented in his own sick mind.

He's telling whomever he thinks is the enemy that his dick is bigger then theirs. Of course, he has to verbalize that but the actions are showing something far different. The man is too ignorant to sit down and talk and too arrogant to admit he is/was wrong. And why the hell do we have a Secretary of State if there is no action coming from that department on this war issue?

If the calls are "originating out of the country"? Who could possibly be behind such an act?? Yes, the Americans hate him but there is no proof that the Iraqi people hate him - except maybe the Sunnis? He is maybe the strongest leader of the strongest gang in Iraq at the present time, with the possible exception of the US military gang.

14. What Doesn't Figure Is Why McCain Is Supporting Sending In More....

troops? I believe that he is shooting himself in the foot with this one.

He might have been asked by * to support sending in more troops in exchange for help by *Co to get him elected in '08. I think he is totally wrong if this is the case. As indicated - this is unwinnable. Sending in more troops now just creates more targets. More targets = more deaths. More deaths = even more support to pull out. McCain is on the wrong side of this issue.

21. So, are they going to use the troops presently in Iraq to invade...

Or will it just be air attacks? We know by now that wars cannot be won in the air only. Explain how we are going to attack Iran? Will Israel do it for us, so soon after they could not whip the Hezbollah in Lebanon? How do we attack? Do we draft a new Army?

All in the vain hope that some sort of miracle will occur and in the end the dream of the Iraqis and the rest of the Middle East will somehow forget about the carnage we produced and sing the Hallelujah Chorus to the troops while flinging roses at them.

This is Bush's rebellion against the voters who rejected Iraq and his failed policies.

This is Bush saying, "Oh yeah. You don't want my war? You don't like my policies?You think you're rejecting me? Hardly. I'll increase the size of this war, despitewhat you said you wanted in the election. You're shit. I'm the king and all of youare meaningless ants."

There's no logical or strategic-military reason for sending 30,000 additional troops. 30,000 is a meaninglessnumber that will make absolutely no difference.

Bush is a psychopath. We stopped the flow of "supply" to his pathological mind, whenwe rejected him in the last election.

We're all being punished for that, and now he's attempting to replenish his "supply"with revenge, anger and control.
